To Drop External Tanks, or Not?
EricJ replied to Oswald Bastable's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Yeah because it's not expected for the Taliban to start flying anytime soon, plus having those tanks is nice for when they're covering your patrol -
mountain thaw
EricJ replied to Romflyer's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
I agree, that's my favorite terrain too. Matter of fact I modded the ini to always have that available as a terrain skin.. -

To Drop External Tanks, or Not?
EricJ replied to Oswald Bastable's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
AFAIK it hasn't been modeled, as far as flak hitting the tanks and setting them off. 9 times out of 10 I keep the tanks regardless, empty or full. And I keep them on due to alot of low level flying, need every drop... -

SF2E A-10 series .ini tweaks
EricJ replied to Fubar512's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
LGB and LGR capability, but that's the only thing I noticed so far, the README is a duplicate of what's above. -
Genie problem
EricJ replied to Nacho14's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
You need to adjust the dates to something like 2020 for them to show up. If that doesn't work then check "Exported" and set the start date (whatever it is) to 2020, then they should show up. If not, it's due to dimensions, weight, etc. -

MGunny 331Killerbee's SF2 Ordnance Shop
EricJ replied to 331Killerbee's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - File Announcements
It should be noted that I've been sending 331Killerbee fixed issues with some weapons, and when you download aircraft, it's good to overwrite them. He's done a momentous job in his work, but the more you fix, and send him, the better he can fix the pack for everybody. -

Sure hope the T-50 gets released... been waiting for that one... -
I'm really impressed with the mission generator
EricJ replied to Helmut_AUT's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Note you can get raided at takeoff too by the Enemy/Friendly side too. I took off in SoCal in an Su-27 and all of a sudden I had four F-15D ACTIVEs greet me with Sparrows as soon as I got the gear up. Not fun stuff and one reason I don't fly Red jets that often, I don't get "greeted" too often when on the Blue side. -

Yep. I've had it for awhile, but wasn't going to convert it due to it being an unreleased beta and not sure where Julhelm is going with it though. -
Updating Older Planes to SF2 Standards
EricJ replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
As a note, be advised that when converting original works to SF2... it can only be ini edits, and that's about it. If the model's jacked up from the get go, then it'll be jacked up in the conversion process. We can only do so much. -

Okay, I figured it would be plug and play... and a little editing, but got this when adding the A model cockpit: -

EricJ replied to Helmut_AUT's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
What's kept me interested in Strike Fighters series is it doesn't require a PhD in coding to get something new added into the game. As said... there's a wide variety of aircraft, time periods, in one sim. LOMAC I always liked, but it's limited coding well, forced me to delete it, and haven't gone back. Sure not as expansive and detailed as LOMAC, but they just released a Nevada terrain years after it was released. Here? I got like eleven different areas of the world, and all I did was extract it from an archive, dropped it where it needed to be, and flying the skies... -

Brain you going to convert it? Because eventually I'll get around to checking it out and making it SF2 compatible.. -
SF2 MOD
EricJ replied to JIMMY99's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Not sure why it's doing that, I think I have the same problem with a skin or two on my Super Hornet... I think it has to do if you select that nation, you can only use those weapons. I noticed that yesterday, or the day before with the Typhoon. I had the nationality set as "USN" and I could only use USN noted weapons on a British aircraft... so I switched it back to RAF and viola, I can use RAF weapons...
